Lochinver Bay Painting Guide

The painting of Lochinver Bay captures the serene and rugged beauty of this iconic Scottish landscape. Bathed in natural light, the scene showcases a harmonious blend of earthy greens and browns contrasted with calming blues and whites.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

1. Prepare Your Canvas

Use the included line drawing or grid to outline the major shapes and elements of the landscape. Focus on the horizon line, bays, and major rocky outcrops. Ensure alignment and proportions using the grid method.

2. Paint the Sky

Blend Sky Blue and White in broad, sweeping motions to mimic the cloud patterns.
Layer the clouds with generous White using a flat brush for texture.
Soften edges where the sky meets the horizon for depth.

3. Create the Water and Horizon

Mix a combination of Sky Blue and White to paint the water areas.
Add slight touches of darker blue to suggest depth and shadows in the water.
Ensure reflections are smooth by using horizontal brush strokes.

4. Add the Distant Hills and Rocks

Use a mixture of Deep Green and Burnt Umber for the distant hills to maintain depth.
Work in layers; add Black for shadowed areas on the rocks.
Use a round brush for smoother lines along the hills.

5. Focus on the Foreground

Apply Olive and Deep Green for the grassy patches. Mix with a little White for highlights.
Introduce Burnt Umber and Black in layered strokes to define rock textures.
Use the detail brush to highlight the edges and accents on rocks and grass tufts.

6. Final Details and Touch-Ups

Add highlights on water and rocks with a clean brush using White, for glimmering effects.
Review the composition by stepping back; add any necessary adjustments to balance tones.
Ensure all elements are cohesive with light, color, and perspective in harmony.

Refer back to your colour wheel to ensure accurate mixing and balance throughout your painting. Enjoy the process and take moments to reflect on your progress, immersing yourself in the calm and beauty of Lochinver Bay.
